[music] Hashem decides he wants to take the Jews out of Mit. So what does he do? He sees Merenu outside of Mit [music] because he didn't go into into Egypt because it was a most hashem. It's like Las Vegas. Hashem says I don't go there. [music] Misha was outside. What's he doing? Shephering. He shepherd Misha. That's all he was. Hashem wants to get his attention.
